First comment on Lowry’s BS non-apology apology:

You wrote: “As John notes, Ben Shapiro has reported
at the Breitbart site Big Peace that one of Hagel’s funding sources is a
group purportedly called “Friends of Hamas.” That might make someone a
good fit for president of Egypt, prime minister of Turkey, or any number
of advisory posts on the White House staff. But given that being a `friend of Hamas’ — at least the kind of friend who provides material
support to that terrorist organization — is a crime in the United
States, it may not be quite what the Senate is looking for in a
secretary of defense.”Are you going to apologize for hinting (with a grain of salt only a lawyer could find) that Hagel is a guilty of treason?
Are you going to apologize for the conservative smear machine that works like this? Someone makes up a quote. Someone else quotes it “with a grain of salt”. Someone else quotes with the salt missing. Pretty soon, commenters at this Corner think you said it and its true.
Your apology doesn’t seem to have a grain of remorse.
